Here’s what to do with freeloaders!

I found some accesses in my log from eBay this morning. Followed the referrer, and found a page that obviously had borrowed some images from my site.

So first I renamed the files, and had a moment of joy that my bandwidth had gone down.

But then I remembered something LisaJill (don’t remember her link) once said about exchanging a hotlinked image with another incredibly rude image.

Hmmm, I didn’t want to go QUITE that far, but I thought, why not, I’ll do it within reason. Check out the image I put up, as it appeared on the freeloader’s eBay auction site:

Wonder what he’ll tell his bidders?

    I have a great htaccess script for blocking all bandwidth thieves.

    Let me know if you want it.

    I know. I used to have it myself. I think it’s an option in cpanel. I turned it off on purpose.
